WEBVTT WEATHER PLUS FORECAST WITH TOM TASSELMYER. TOM: WINDY AND WET ACROSS THE REGION. UNSEASONABLY COOL TEMPERATURES AS WELL. IT IS RAW AND NOT EVEN ASSOCIATED WITH THE HURRICANE. IT IS A WEATHER PATTERN THAT HAS GUSTY NORTHEAST WINDS AND WET CONDITIONS CONTINUING, SLOWLY IMPROVING CONDITIONS FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. HAVE THE UMBRELLA HANDY THIS EVENING. LOOK AT THESE WINDS OUT OF THE NORTH, NORTHEAST AND GUSTING 35 MILES PER HOUR. LOOK AT HOW THE WAY THE WIND PICKS UP IN SPEED FROM ATLANTIC CITY TO DELAWARE. GUSTING AT 40 MILES PER HOUR. THAT IS THE PEAK WIND GUSTS. THE CLOSER YOU GET TO THE COAST, THE WINDIER IT IS. THIS IS JUST BIG, STRONG HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE NORTH COMING IN WITH NORTHEAST WINDS ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN PART OF THE STATE. THEY COMBINED WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 40'S AND 50'S. A REAL FALL DAY, ALMOST INTO THE 40'S -- 30'S IN OAKLAND. 41 IN GARRETT COUNTY. AROUND HERE, THE RAIN CONTINUES TO FALL OVERNIGHT. LOWS 45 TO 50. AGAIN, IT IS STRONG HIGH PRESSURE PUMPING THOSE STRONG WINDS AND CHILLY TEMPERATURES DOWN THE COAST. LOW PRESSURE OVER NORTHERN ALABAMA THAT IS PUSHING MOISTURE OVER THE TOP OF THAT AND THAT IS PRODUCING THE RAIN AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO TONIGHT AND TOMORROW MORNING. THIS IS IN NO HURRY TO LEAVE, BUT SLOWLY THIS PATTERN WILL BREAK DOWN. THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL HELP STEER JOAQUIN OUT FARTHER OFF THE COAST. IT HAS DECREASED IN INTENSITY A LITTLE. THE MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE DOWN TO 125. GUSTS AT 155. IT IS BEGINNING TO MOVE NORTH, BEGINNING TO LEAVE THE BAHAMAS. I'M SURE THEY ARE HAPPY TO SEE THAT BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN THERE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. THERE IS THE UPDATED FORECAST TRACK. IT IS A LITTLE WEST OF BERMUDA BUT STILL A CONCERN AS THE HURRICANE APPROACHES THEM LATE SUNDAY. MONDAY AFTERNOON, A COUPLE OF HUNDRED MILES EAST. TUESDAY, IT IS OUT OF HERE. IT STAYS ON THAT TRACK, WE ARE LOOKING GOOD. WE JUST HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE RAIN FALLING. TOMORROW, IT TAKES OFF IN SCATTERED SHOWERS. I DON'T THINK WE HAVE A LOT OF RAIN ON SUNDAY. A 20% CHANCE OF SHOWERS, BUT IT WILL STAY MOSTLY CLOUDY. BY MONDAY, WE SHOULD SEE SOME SUNSHINE. MOST OF NEXT WEEK IS LOOKING PRETTY NICE. TONIGHT, TOMORROW MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON, ANOTHER ONE TO TWO INCHES, MAYBE THREE INCHES OF RAIN. THAT IS WHY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HAS FLOOD WATCHES BALTIMORE SOUTH AND ALONG THE COAST. BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR THAT. SCATTERED SHOWERS TOMORROW. STILL A BREEZY DAY WITH NORV WINS AT 15 TO -- NORTH WINDS AT 15 TO 20. WAVES ON THE BAY CLOSE TO FOUR FEET. THE SEVEN-DAY FORECAST -- 57 AND WINDY TOMORROW, BUT THE RAIN TAPERS OFF.
